I LOVE this game so far and it's no joke, I'm really hooked!! I don't usually comment on Itch.io but I really want to comment my thoughts of this game as it's still in development and I'm quite fond of it now.
I LOVE the premise of the story. Honestly, it made me feel motivated at some point. For context I'm an oc creator and enthusiast myself, and a visual novel about a doctor (artist) seeing her childhood painting filled with the characters they drew really hits home to me. I love how I could relate to mc as we both make art and ocs(?) and express creativity through art but may have to give up the dream of being an artist for reasons, the MC for their parents' approval while for me my stability in adulthood and finance. It's a tough road for both of us, but the thing I couldn't do that they can is get transported into a world they created so long ago. I guess living through their lense is quite therapeutic (Maybe not so much as her original fairy characters seem very...murder-y.)
Even so, I still love the characters, art, music, and vibe of it!! The characters are very distinct and unique in vibe and personality, something I really like. I also love cgs and the sprites so shoutout to the amazing artists who drew them!! 馃挄 The music and vibe is also amazing, the shifts from serene the eerie, I love it.
Side note, personally, I LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS I REALLY DO 馃挄 馃挄 But maybe my top favs are Shyloh, Helios, and Rosario. Shyloh's such a monochrome cutie and has the MC's best interests with genuine care for them 馃枻 Helios is so ethereal and angelic even when he doesn't seem to be. I LOVE the character trope where a character is white and golden colored and angelic themed when they aren't really angelic on the inside 馃挍 For Rosario, I LOVE feminine and beautiful men. Maybe it's my love for Vil Schoenheit from Twisted Wonderland showing but I really like the beautiful and confident male type characters 馃┓
I currently don't have much criticisms asides from the fact that I would really love to see more MC customization options in future updates. Don't get me wrong!! The current customization options are AMAZING and very inclusive right now. But I guess it's just my inner love for games with character customization in me 馃挄
I think I'm rambling at this point but I'm really looking forward to the next update for this game. I wish there was a community space/area for this game so I could be part of it. I would really love to see this visual novel grow!! I also hope that in the future, I could submit fan art?? I've been liking the designs so far so I'd love to draw some fan art and show it!! 馃挄 I've been drawing the Chromatic Agape characters interacting with my own ocs as to practice my art skills for better art quality along the way so I hope to deliver quality fan art very soon!!
Sorry if it's such a very self indulgent and unnecessarily long rant about this game, I'm just really intrigued and interested in the game as I kind of resonate with it in a sense. Hope to see more updates 馃挄
